Can you tell me EXACTLY what you did to make it do this?
Crashes associated with variable viewing (in Source, Locals, or Watch
windows) are usually a result of Insight holding onto some temporary gdb
data which is lost when a program is re-run. We identified a bug some
months ago which would result in this behavior. I don't know if a fix
was ever checked in.
